SirEdger Posted March 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 By the way, I'm looking to have more than one non-tournament match by night. I'd like to have 2 for Night 1, 3 for Night 2 and 3 for Night 3 and I'd like to have every promotion represented for the occasion. So, feel free to pitch any match you'd like to have featured, title match or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
